Abstract

Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) has attracted considerable interest in several fields with growth in different areas, especially in the arts, especially in music production. With respect to the above research questions, this review paper aims to illustrate the uses of AI-driven generative models in making multi-part instrumental ensembles. The case study concentrates on the applicability of generative algorithms for intricate layered compositions making use of deep learning and reinforcement learning techniques that are in synergy for imitating traditional composite ensembles. As for the AI methods being discussed in the paper, there is a focus on the use of neural networks, generative adversarial networks (GANs), and recurrent neural networks (RNNs) and how they can be applied to compose harmony that would reflect stylistic coherence across the genres selected. From this case study, the paper shows how AI can transform the possibility of composition and propose areas that composers have not yet developed and are unlikely to consider within existing limits. It also talks about the drawbacks that act as barriers to applying AI in music production problems, including how to make the pieces created more creative, how to instill emotion, and how to make them sound more human-like. Moreover, the present review explores the marriage between AI and music theory to check how machine algorithms can capture and imitate harmonic, counterpoint, and rhythmic patterns. Overall, therefore, the goal of this paper is to afford a broad and relatively detailed understanding of the manner in which AI can be used to revolutionize the process of music composing with a special emphasis placed on the domain of multi-part instrumental ensembles.

Abstract

Atherosclerotic disease significantly impacts patients with type 2 diabetes, who often present with recalcitrant peripheral ulcers. The angiosome model of the foot presents an opportunity to perform direct angiosome-targeted endovascular interventions to maximise both wound healing and limb salvage. A systematic review was performed, with 17 studies included in the final review. Below-the-knee endovascular interventions present significant technical challenges, with technical success depending on the length of lesion being treated and the number of angiosomes that require treatment. Wound healing was significantly improved with direct angiosome-targeted angioplasty, as was limb salvage, with a significant increase in survival without major amputation. Indirect angioplasty, where the intervention is applied to collateral vessels to the angiosomes, yielded similar results to direct angiosome-targeted angioplasty. Applying the angiosome model of the foot in direct angiosome-targeted angioplasty improves outcomes for patients with recalcitrant diabetic foot ulcers in terms of primary wound healing, mean time for complete wound healing and major amputation-free survival.
